History

Xiao was 26 years old when he started XYZ Motors in a empty warehouse rented from a gracious friend. That date was August 27, 2007. The shop was open for business in October but you couldn't tell because the roll up doors were always down. He likes being completely focused when working on cars. What started as a one man shop grew over the next 3 years to what it is today. Due to family and personal health issues, Xiao sold the business in November 2011. He stayed on till September 2012 to help with the transition. Huey is the new owner.

Reliable, trustworthy and quality repair and service. They maintain our 2007 Honda Accord SE with a 149,000 miles. We're pretty sure it will get to 200,000 with regular maintenance thanks to XYZ.
